MEET MS. HALLE BERRY

Epiphany's Chuck Faush Interviews super star Halle Berry on her latest movie "A Perfect Stranger"

Chuck: So people will go to any length to forgive and forget?

Halle: I don't know about that but I do know that people will go to any length to keep a secret and hide who they really are from the world. I think everybody does it.

Chuck: So we all have secrets then?

Halle: I think so.

Chuck: Why do we do this? Why do we hide them and keep going?

Halle: Think about when you first meet someone. Say you're on a date, and you meet somebody for the first time. Wouldn't you say it's true that most people send their representatives? The real them is at home in bed somewhere. We start off hiding.

Chuck: In the Perfect Stranger, are you caught up with Bruce Willis character or are you caught up with using Bruce Willis' character to get what you want?

Halle: She's masterfully using him for what she wants but making him believe that she just might be interested. What did you think about that?

Chuck: I thought I had it figured out at every turn. Most times you get down to the last three or four minutes and you know exactly where it's going. And in this, you have absolutely no clue.

Halle: (exclaims) Yes!

Chuck: It was a good thing. When it was over, I sat there stunned. There were so many twists and turns all the way through but the thing that struck me was that your character was almost always in the same predicament all the time.

Halle: (nods her head) And even in the end, you get the feeling that the cycle never ends. It doesn't end for her so she will remain the very thing that she was trying to free herself from. It starts all over again.

Chuck: So the back and forth thing wasn't just between you and Bruce's character but between you and Giavanni's character.

Halle: Yes. All three of us. We were all sort of interconnected in a way.

Chuck: So is that a good or a bad thing?

Halle: It depends on what you consider really bad.

Chuck: Oh come on.

Halle: (laughs) It's really like that. It never stops.

Chuck: So it continues but continues in a good way.

Halle: I think so. I think my character did what she had to do. She uncovered what she needed to uncover and she exposed what she needed to expose and at the end of the day, she's a survivor.
